This Show Has Everything

Back in the good ol’ days, before we had to make rent or mortgage payments, before groceries and insurance and car repairs, before toiletries and utilities and emergencies, how did we spend our money? When the only thing we had to worry about was our own miniature wants, what were the things for which we saved our hard-earned allowance? It turns out we were just as food-obsessed back then as we are now, but there are a few other things our little hearts desired. Along the way, tootsie rolls, more mime talk, and Elmo’s gender presentation. Plus, Bobby wants a vibe check and Ann’s a go for magnetization.

Like the Cosmo girls before us, your TSHE Coven (™) is here to take some quizzes! From What Muppet we are (spoiler - no one got Miss Piggy) to an unholy combination of Broadway musicals and Minnesota State Fair food (why is Sweet Martha infamous), we’re definitively going to find out who we are!

In other news, we still have a fair amount to say about Kevin James, believe it or not. That discussion devolves into a discussion on voice acting. Is it hard work? Can someone give us a job doing that? Please? Also, Hillary hates summer and isn't afraid to admit it!

After weeks of deliberation, fielding listener feedback and singing that DuckTales ear worm hook to ourselves, the TSHE crew reconvenes to declare once and for all a definitive winner for the title of greatest TV theme song of all time. We will not be taking further questions.

Also: Meredith spent some quality time with OJ, Ann spent some quality time with Will the Pilot, Bobby spent some quality time with some local TV news anchors and Hillary spent some quality time with Robert Redford and Barbara Streisand.

It’s been another week of impossible schedules, so we’ve reached back into the TSHE vault to bring you this classic episode from May 2023. We’ll be back with the conclusion of the TV theme song bracket challenge next week! Original show notes are below:

Bobby, Ann and Hillary have packed the folding tables, the camp chairs, the lawn blankets and, of course, their appetites for a special summer kickoff potluck! What are we bringing to the buffet table? What do we avoid in the game of salmonella roulette? And who’s going to remember the ice?

Plus: Bobby tries snacks so you don’t have to. Hillary’s dealing with a case of turgid ankles. And Ann’s saving the world so Hillary doesn’t have to. 

Smuckers, do better!

Welcome back welcome back welcome back to the TSHE Iconic tv theme song bracket! We’ve culled, we’ve organized, and we’re ready to reveal the lineups and winnow it down to the final few. Battles were fought, but like the dessert ranking previously, we realized we’re pretty basic! But it wouldn’t be TSHE without some tangents - funky composers, Patrick Swayze, Patton Oswalt included.

In other news, Hillary saw the Minions movie and didn’t completely hate it (thanks, wine) and cried hard at Toy Story 5 (again, thanks wine/nostalgia). Bobby is closing the Mayfair Lane chapter of his life (goodbye, HOA), but continuing his long-standing relationship with TBTL (hello, frog jumping).

TSHE Recommends: 

Toy Story 5 (needs the Hillary bump)

We’re developing the TSHE tv theme songs bracket, and things are starting to take shape. Categories have been established (‘Just Words’ will never not make us laugh), songs have been assigned, and we’re ready for the arguing to begin. The X-Files vs Twin Peaks? Growing Pains vs The Facts of Life? Duck Tales vs Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers? Who knows how things will shake out, so stay tuned to see what wins and what will forever remain just an earworm. Plus, we get a full debrief on Hillary’s trip to Merry Olde England.

In an age when the media landscape is as fractured as ever and quality across the board is waning, your TSHE hosts answer the call for the kind of critical analysis and historical context that is much needed today with a thoughtful, scientific and thoroughly researched discussion on media criticism though the lens of television theme songs. And by that we mean, a nostalgia-soaked TV-based version of remembering some guys. Did we figure out the Top 10 intro songs of all time? Not even remotely. Will we turn this into weeks and weeks of content you can’t resist the way middle-aged men like to sit around naming old baseball players? We can hope!

There were no utensils in medieval times, hence there are no utensils at Medieval Times. Would you like a refill on that Pepsi? Like Bill and Ted before us, your TSHE hosts are ready to explore what our lives would have been like in Medieval times - the era of history, not the restaurant (though, that comes up a lot). We would probably be very stinky/die of one fever but maybe our lives would have purpose? Also, for reference - https://www.naomiclifford.com/dictionary-of-the-vulgar-tongue-women/ 

In small talk, Hillary talks about livin’ on the edge in rural Texas. We also discuss the disappearance of the mid-Atlantic accent in conjunction with Hillary trying to extricate herself from the grips of Ken Burns.

We like to think that we give things a fair shake around here, but sometimes you just can’t get there. This week, we’re talking about things that are Not For Me, which includes entries in the food, music, attraction, sports, and pop culture spheres. Also, Ann’s on a (probably unsuccessful) quest for more protein, Bobby gave Fella his own suite, and Meredith loves a good curd.

Listen back with us this week as we return to a conversation from July 2021 about why we love America. (It was complicated then. It's not less complicated now.) Here's the original episode description:

In honor of America’s birthday, we celebrate the reasons we love—at least a little bit—our home and native land. Plus: Your favorite vintage nostalgic tech, Cool Aunt Hillary chauffeured some youths, Bobby the Body got burned at the beach, cultural explorer Meredith ventured to Hamtramck, and Ann wants you to know she is also super exciting. (She’s also a fan of a ridged chip.)
